Lenni Kuff updated HIVE-12983:
------------------------------
Description:
It would be nice to have a builtin function that would return the Hive version.
This would make it easier for a users and tests to programmatically check the
Hive version in a SQL script. It's also useful so a client can check the Hive
version on a remote cluster.
For example:
{code}
beeline> SELECT version();
2.1.0-SNAPSHOT r208ab352311a6cbbcd1f7fcd40964da2dbc6703d
{code}
